This is my 3rd app for music and videos and so far the best. Sound quality is excellent and plays more of my file types than I was previously able to. Now I use VLC for both my fire tablet and the PC version for my computer.

Is a free and open-source portable cross-platform media player software and streaming media server developed by the VideoLAN project. ... VLC supports many audio and video compression methods and file formats, including DVD-Video, video CD and streaming protocols.

I downloaded VLC to use for DLNA video streaming, but uninstalled it after experiencing two issues in one day.1. Missing network folders (folders were there at first but vanished) which required an app reset to find.2. Missing audio which also required an app reset.Will go back to the Blu Ray player for network streaming, which works perfectly.

Found it laggy and buffered a lot my network speeds fine and other apps stream with no problems from my dlna I've found a lot of vlc apps very poor compared to there PC version which plays everything you throw at it with no problems

3.0 out of 5 stars... of app is feature limited and has a very annoying fast forward and rewind

Amazon version of app is feature limited and has a very annoying fast forward and rewind, it does it in four min chunks as apposed to sec in the windows, mac etc. apps. However this may be because of a amazon fire stick limitation or due to the fact it was a network stream.
